Chapter 7: Global Holocaust Education for the Twenty-first Century

We have bright prospects for global Holocaust and human rights education in the twenty-first century. As educators, we are supported by vast and historically unique technologies that help us share historical hindsight. After a postwar period when Holocaust education was limited, languishing in the context of troubled and sometimes traumatized relationships between history and memory, we are now living with tremendous opportunities for international Holocaust and human rights education. Survivors have spoken and we have heard, formalizing memorial cultures. We have easy access to use amazing educational resources developed by many major organizations, allowing us to facilitate interesting curricular delivery and course development.
